In just under three weeks the British public will be voting on whether or not Britain remains a member of the EU, so I thought I'd see what the people of this forum think on the issue.

Personally, I'm a bit on the fence, but slightly leaning towards remain, mainly because I don't really trust the Tories to govern us alone with no restrictions on them. I don't think the EU is perfect by any means, but I believe we should remain and help to reform them for the good of everyone, rather than just giving up because things are looking a bit rough at the moment... but that's just what I think. What about you guys?

You have 14 days to vote.

Remain. I've wanted to emigrate for a few years now, and if I decide to stay in Europe I like that for Eu countries, you don't need much in the way of visas.

I'm not giving it much thought. This is not 'whether we remain in the EU or not' - it's a straw poll, dressed up a bit. It's not final, it's not legally-binding and there's no obligation for anyone higher up to listen to it. None whatsoever.

Governance is not democracy, after all. Rule is not democracy. 24% of us voted blue last time out - democracy, as we think we know it, doesn't exist.

This isn't going to change anything in its own right - so why bother yourself with all the ins and outs, all the stress?
If you're wise enough to know they don't listen to you now, surely you're not naive enough to think they'll start in twelve days' time?

Believe the media hysteria at your own peril; but remember who owns those media institutions, and remember what their views and intentions are. It's not tinfoil-hat stuff.
